What Wendy Wore: Going Gaga From the Heat

July 7, 2010 by WendyB

I’m going to see Lady Gaga at Madison Square Garden tonight and I’ve been working on a look to top the outfit I wore to the January Gaga concert. Here is a peek at the makeup. More and better pictures to come after the show!

Makeup by Tennille at Kimara Ahnert.

UPDATED, POST-CONCERT AND EXHAUSTED:

My look was “disco-ball Marie Antoinette.” Strangely, the tights didn’t bother me in the 100 degree New York City weather.

What Wendy Wore
Dress:
Plein Sud (2003 or before)
Tights: eBay
Shoes: Prada (pre-2005)
Nails: Minx
Rings: WendyB
Bracelet
: “Crime Scene Do Not Enter” Band-aids.
Makeup: Tennille from Kimara Ahnert
Hair: Julie Matos
Bag (seen below): Whiting & Davis

Talk to the hands. NYC and GaGa "swear rings" by WendyB.

I went to the concert with gorgeous bloggers Stacy and Tina, and our friend Fiona.

The audience really dressed up this time, unlike the Radio City Music Hall concert in January.

Random concert goers.

Loved the Coke-can hair curlers on the right.

Gaga worked hard. The concert was totally changed from the one in January. I’d see her again.

Click to find out why this sign on Gaga's set made me laugh.

UPDATED TO ADD: Check out Stacy’s great Gaga photos and video!

      Is it because my dress is dangerously close to the chocha area?
